Santa

Here are the kids decorating the Christmas tree.  They were so excited to do it.  I can't believe that it entertained them for so long.


Our ward, had Santa come and visit the kids at our ward Christmas party. The kids were so excited to sit on his lap and tell him want they want for Christmas.  It was so fun to see them so excited.  Here is a picture of each of them on Santa's lap.

 

 

The kids also wanted to write letters to Santa.  So Abbey helped her brothers make their lists of toys for Christmas and we went to Macy's to mail them in their mailbox for Santa.  The kids thought that was the coolest thing to do.  They keep asking if I think Santa has gotten the letters yet.  If I was only young again. 

Halloween 09

This year for Halloween our ward did a trunk-or-treat.  The kids really like this; they get to see all their friends at one place.  It was a lot of fun.  Jace and Ty were able to dress up for school.

Ty was Optimus Prime.

Abbey was Ariel the Little Mermaid.
                                                                                     










Jace was Batman












Dad was the one handing out the candy.






We all had a great time.

U2 Concert

The main reason to go to Vegas, was to go to see U2 in concert. It was one of Dave's life goals to see them in concert. It was the best concert I've gone to. We enjoyed ourselves probably a little too much.The stage was amazing, looking like a spaceship.

We didn't take the kids, Grandma Lou and Papa came out to be with them. We did go with two other couples that are our good friends. It made the trip so much more enjoyable with them around.Jeff and Sarah Flint

Chad & Stephanie Kearl

We had a good time. It was a great, much needed, mini vacation.

Hoover dam

While we were in Vegas, we went to see the Hoover Dam. What an amazing structure. It was worth the drive. So cool to see.

Just a cute picture

This was taken at Ty's birthday. I just thought it was too cute to keep to myself. Abbey has her dad wrapped around her finger so tight.

Ty's 4th Bday

Ty reading one of his new books. He loves to just sit and read stories.
All the kids at Arctic Circle. We invited the Flint family to come along and share in the fun.

Ty is getting so big. I can't believe it has been four years. We love him so much. He is such a happy boy and so cuddly. We love you Ty!!

The Blue Sharks

Jace is so excited to be in soccer again this year. His team is called the blue sharks. He is so competitive. He keeps track of the score and how many goals he has made. Jace is so speedy as well. He is always running!!!

First day of school July 09

Yes it has been awhile since I've posted. I can't believe all the stuff I need to put on.
Both Abbey and Jace started school this year. Abbey is in first grade with Mrs. Waters as her teacher. Jace is in Kindergarten with Mrs. Jacobs as his teacher. They love school. Currently, though, we are off track right now.

Swimming Lessons

This summer we decided to put the kids in swimming lessons. They have had a great time and have made tons of improvement. Ty is the one on the bottom doing a back stroke. Thank you Laci for teaching our children!!! They have had a blast.

We went out to Myton this past weekend. We had some family pictures taken. Here are a couple that was done. It was a very relaxing and Makele had a great time seeing all of her siblings and their children.


Here is Ty and cousin Landon over at the farm.


By the time we got to the boys, Ty was done.

Abbey's last day of Kindergarten

Abbey's days of Kindergarten are over. She did awesome singing for the program at the end of the school year.

Here she is with her teacher, Mrs. Cynthia Jacobs. She was such a wonderful teacher.

Abbey's first tooth...Gone

Abbey's first tooth came out a couple of weeks ago. She was so excited. She was eating an apple and it just fell out. I can't believe how big she is getting.

Abbey's Spring Concert

Abbey had her last concert on the 22 May. She had a lot of fun and even got a trophy.

Abbey has had a wonderful time.

Jace finishes Preschool

Here is Jace graduating from preschool. He really enjoyed it and made lots of new friends.Here he is with his teacher Pam. She is so awesome.

Jace with his basket of goodies.

Sprinkler time anyone??

Saturday was a day that the kids went outside to run through the sprinklers. They had a blast. It was still a little cold, but well worth it.

It was funny to see them dry off and try and get warm on the cement.


I love the spring!!!

Congrats to Jace!!

Jace's last soccer game was last Saturday. He did an awesome job. Jace has had a wonderful season and can't wait to go at it in the Fall.

Here he is with the trophy.

Happy 5th BDay Jace

Jace had a wonderful birthday on Saturday the 2nd of May. I love him with all of my heart. He is so soft hearted and has so much energy. I love snuggling with him in the mornings, cause I know that won't last long. He is so sensitive and protective of his siblings, most of the time.

Friday, we took ourselves and a couple of Jace's friends, Easton Rose and Landon Chapman to the Kangaroo Zoo. Such an awesome place. The kids ran wild. And were so worn out by the end of two hours. Jace wanted a Batman cake, so here is it. just the symbol it's all I could do.


He had a lot of fun with all the friends coming over for cake and ice cream. His soccer game was cancelled along with some other plans for Saturday. But, his good friend Spencer Barker and his family came over for a BBQ and brownies with a spider web on it this time. So much for action heros.

We love you Jace and hope you had a wonderful day!!

Happy Easter

Yes, we are so behind!! What can I say. Well, this year we stayed home for Easter, but had a great time. The kids had a lot of fun with Easter egg hunting, coloring eggs, and the Easter bunny, who brought bubbles!!

Way to go Jace

Last Saturday at soccer Jace scored 6 goals!!! He is doing so awesome.

He is also doing great with basketball.
Yesterday we found out that Jace could ride his bike without training wheels. He is a natural. He loves to ride his bike.

Spring is here!!!

I love this weather. It is so wonderful to have the kids play outside for a change. They have loved being in the cul-de-sac, that way they can just go crazy in the front yard. (It is more excited out front than the back.) This year has been fun especially to see what will pop up next. The new home is great that way. The previous owners had the yard professionally landscaped and they have all sorts of fun spring flowers. Happy spring to everyone!!!
